TWU Spring 2009

Published

Hello everyone just wanted to see if there were anymore hopeful spring 2009 applicants out there. I submitted my application already and just sitting back waiting till Nov when acceptance/rejection letters are sent out. I know they said for us to check out emails everyday in October. If anyone has been through the application process before please share your experience. Good luck to everyone :wink2:

Yes, I applied for Houston. I live here and I am married. It would be hard to move. At orientation they said a 70% on the reading is competitive.

Thank you so much!! Hopefully we can be students together one of these days:rolleyes:

I did some calculations, and if I retake 2 or 3 classes I can greatly increase my GPA. I can't do anything in time for the fall deadline, and I don't want to spread this out forever....this is frustrating. If I can't get in, I am going to talk to an advisor at TWU. They will be able to tell me what I need to do. I am tired of stressing out about this. I probably have a better chance at getting into UT.

I know a lot of applicants had applied several places, so some that got "accepted" will not send the letter back to TWU if they got accepted elsewhere (for instance - a lower cost ADN program), so there will still be slots opening up... think positive!

Oh thank you!! I am interested in many nursing programs, but I definitely want a bachelor degree. I already have 2 Associate degrees, and I'm ready to get out of community college.

I have to keep a positive attitude no matter what happens. At least there are other people who are dealing with the same issues, so I'm glad I'm not alone in this. They probably had around 600 applicants this semester, and only 90 (or maybe 100) will be accepted. The odds are not in my favor. They said one year they had 1800 applicants, and they only took 60 or something. The competitive admission process is verging on ridiculous. I am looking forward to becoming a nurse, but getting through this is very difficult for me financially and emotionally.

Hey everyone now that I have gotten some sleep and really thought thing through I feel a lot better. First off I wanna say congrats to everyone who got accepted. TWU just doesn't take anyone and I know each and every one of you deserved it. With that said I guess me being put on the wait lost isn't that bad. I'm happy know I was good enough to get into TWU just wasn't enough slots to take everyone. I know I'm very lucky. They could have easily gave me a rejection letter. If I don't get a spot this semester its not over for me. With my A I will be replacing I know I have a good chance of getting accpeted into fast track or the fall. Thanks for all the encouraging words and I won't give up my quest to become a nurse

Good morning my nursing friends to be:

Today is another day for all of us and time for a plan to come together.

One thing I do want to stress if you can take Patho. prior to being accepted into the nursing program please do so. It will take a huge load off of you during your first semester especially since you have to deal with Pharm. as well.

Patho. is not hard, but information can be very overwhelming. So those of you that are waiting include Patho. into your equation of completion prior to.

Well, yes I will await the mailman again today. I have to go to work so I will be checking in periodically to say hello.

Any new word please let me know. Yes, I said a special prayer for us all and this to will come to pass.
